| Crescendo by Dusty Strings |
The 32-string Crescendo blends the streamlined construction of the Allegro with a larger playing range. With a laminated birch soundboard, solid Sapele on the rest of the harp and Loveland levers available on every string, the Crescendo has the clean, bright sound of the Allegro enhanced by the deeper, fuller effect of a larger harp.
Even with the additional bass range, this 4-1/2 octave harp is still compact enough for easy portability. For the beginner or budget-conscious player, the Crescendo combines affordability with the pleasure of playing a sweet sounding midsize harp.
The Crescendo at a glance:
• Max height: 49.5 inches
• Max soundboard width: 13.5 inches
• Weight: approx. 23 lbs.
• Number of Strings: 32
• Octaves: 4-1/2

• High: A6 (2-3/4 octaves above Middle C)
• Levers: Full or Partial Lovelands

At The Harp Connection, we normally stock the Crescendo with full Loveland levers (shown) and our price includes the optional CC32 form-fitted, soft-shell case. You can custom order a Crescendo with levers only on the Cs, Bs and Fs, or without the case, from the custom-order menu below. |
